Highest and Best Monday 12/6 by noon The expansive lake and Hill Country views from this stunning Mediterranean estate put you in a vacation state of mind. The home is set high on a hillside overlooking the main body of Lake Travis in the quaint village of Volente. This retreat has all of the architectural hallmarks of a Mediterranean villa, from the red tile roof to the arched windows and doorways and the black iron details. As beautiful as the house is, the generous outdoor spaces will make you never want to come inside. Fortunately, the outdoors flows seamlessly from the indoors through accordion glass doors that open entire walls to the entertaining space just beyond. With over 2400 sqft of outdoor living, you'll have the summer kitchen that is the envy of all of your friends, featuring a full complement of best-in-class Alfresco appliances. Everything from a wok to a kegerator and all points in between. The oversized pool has multiple water features, a beach entry, and a negative edge overlooking lake Travis. When the weather turns cooler, the outdoor fun continues either around the firepit or the grand stone fireplace. The home's interior is spacious and well-appointed, offering stone and wood floors with 4 bedrooms and 4.5 baths. The main living flows directly into the gourmet kitchen, breakfast area, and patios, all offering stunning panoramic lake views. There is one guest room with a full bath on the lower level. Upstairs offers 3 additional bedrooms, including the primary, which is a true retreat—offering a spacious bedroom with views to the lake, a grand bath with a large walk-in closet, a large covered deck, and an attached flex space that could be an office, exercise room, or nursery.
